Chapter 286: Food Arrives (Plus 4)

Wang Lei returned to Ye County with the soldiers, and after the army was settled, Wang Lei immediately convened officials to discuss the matter.

The situation is urgent and cannot be delayed.

In the hall of the state pastor's mansion, Wang Lei sat above, looking around at the officials in the hall, Wang Lei said straight to the point: "The threat of Gongsun Zan and Wuhuan has been lifted, only Yuan Shao and the Qingzhou Yellow Turban thief Guan Hai are left, Zhang Jaw sent back the news that Yuan Shao was blocked outside the county seat of Ping'en County, Yuan Shao could not go south for the time being, and the remaining problem was Guan Hai!" ”

After a brief analysis, Wang Lei continued: "The most important problem at the moment is the lack of food, the soldiers and horses have not moved the grain and grass first, without grain and grass, it is impossible to fight, the top priority is to solve the problem of food, with food, it is not difficult to repel Guan Hai!" ”

Du Yi scratched his head and scratched his ears, with a look of embarrassment: "The humble post has sent people to collect grain, but the effect is not great!" ”

Wang Lei flicked his sleeves and said strongly: "I don't want the process, I just want the result, and the problem of food must be solved!" ”

Du Yi smiled bitterly, this is really difficult.

During this period of time, he was tormented by the food thing.

Unexpectedly, Wang Lei's return was a death order.

Seeing that Wang Lei ignored the current situation, Xin Ping couldn't help but speak: "My lord, the problem of food, I'm afraid it is not easy to solve, without food, it is impossible to make it out of thin air, and you can't rob the people's food!" ”

Wang Lei said in a deep voice: "I didn't say that I went to rob the people's grain, this is absolutely impossible to do, but if I don't want to find a way to collect food, do I want to surrender to Yuan Shao with the army?" Even, let Qingzhou's yellow turban thief Guan Hai wreak havoc in Jizhou? ”

Xin Ping was dumbfounded, Wang Lei naturally couldn't surrender.

Anyone can surrender, but Wang Lei cannot.

Guo Jia suddenly spoke: "My lord, Wei County is adjacent to Dongjun Taishou Cao Cao's Dongjun, and Yanzhou and Jizhou are adjacent, so I think I can send someone to Dongjun to meet Cao Cao and ask Cao Cao for grain and grass; Or send someone to Yanzhou to buy grain from Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou, during this time there is a shortage of food, but it can be delayed for a period of time until the grain is shipped back! ”

Du Ji's eyes lit up and said, "Feng Xiao's idea is good, why didn't I think of it?" ”

When Wang Lei heard this, he also felt that Guo Jia's plan was feasible, and immediately ordered: "Since you have the idea of collecting grain, you will immediately carry it out, and this battle will be sent to Dongjun, and it will be ......."

"Report!"

Before he could finish speaking, the sound of soldiers coming from outside the hall was heard.

"Come in!"

Wang Lei looked up and saw a soldier running in quickly.

The soldier knelt on one knee and reported: "Lord Qiyu, I just received the news that Cao Cao, the Taishou of Dongjun, sent someone to send 30,000 stone of grain, and at present, the escorted grain has entered Neihuang County and is rushing to Ye County!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the hall suddenly exploded.

"Cao Cao sent food, good, great, finally saved!"

"God bless my lord, there is food delivered!"

"Cao Cao is really a good person, as long as the grain arrives in Ye County, with the combat effectiveness of the soldiers in the army, it will be easy to expel the Yellow Turban Thief and defeat Yuan Shao!"

One by one, the officials spoke, with excited expressions on their faces.

At this moment, everyone fell into ecstasy.

Just now, he was fighting for the sake of collecting grain, and in the blink of an eye, Cao Cao sent someone to send 30,000 stone of grain. Although the food is not much, it is enough to relieve Wang Lei's current crisis, which is the real relief in the snow.

Wang Lei was stunned for a moment, and then recovered immediately, with an excited look on his face, Wang Lei stood up and shouted in a deep voice: "Where is Dian Wei!" ”

"The last general!"

Dian Wei stood up and replied with his fists clenched.

Wang Lei smiled at the corner of his mouth, and ordered: "Mobilize the cavalry of the Flying Tiger Battalion, follow me to Neihuang County to meet Cao Cao's grain team, with the 30,000 stone grain sent by Cao Cao, Jizhou will win, Yuan Shao and Guan Hai will definitely be defeated!" ”

Guo Jia, Du Yi, Tian Feng and others also had smiles on their faces, and they breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Lei left everyone behind and immediately left with Dian Wei.

Soon, the cavalry of the Flying Tiger Battalion went out of Ye County, and went straight to the neighboring county Neihuang County, Wang Lei led the Flying Tiger Battalion to hurry, and in two days, the cavalry entered Neihuang County, Wang Lei sent a sentry to inquire a little, and easily found the Chen Gong and his party who escorted the grain and grass, and then went straight away.

On the wide official road, the carriages are slowly moving forward, each carriage is loaded with hemp bags, which are filled with grain, this pair of people and horses is the Chen Gong and his party who escorted the grain into Neihuang County from Dongjun, Chen Gong was wearing a black robe, covered with a robe, and wrapped himself like a zongzi.

The cold wind was howling, Chen Gong rubbed his hands and sighed lightly in his heart.

This trip to Ye County is really sinful, the cold weather, can not rest, especially has arrived in the middle of December, close to the end of the year, at this time, Chen Gong is not very reluctant to come out, a soldier ran to Chen Gong, reported: "My lord, the cavalry of the Jizhou Army was found in front, and they are rushing towards us!" ”

Chen Gong's lazy smile appeared and he said, "Stop, get ready to meet!" ”

The team stopped, and Chen Gong came to the front of the line, waiting eagerly.

About a moment of incense, there was a rumbling sound on the ground, on the horizon, a cavalry appeared, trampled with iron hooves, ice slag flying, Chen Gong saw this cavalry The moment he saw it, his pupils shrank.

This cavalry is magnificent, and the soldiers are high-spirited, and it is not simple.

Jizhou has such cavalry, and its strength is not weak.

After a while, the cavalry of the Flying Tiger Battalion had already rushed over, Wang Lei grabbed the reins of the horse, turned over and dismounted, with a smile on his face, came to the front of the grain team, and said with a smile: "I am Wang Lei, who is the official in charge of escorting the grain!" ”

Chen Gong was surprised in his heart, but he didn't expect Wang Lei to come in person.

But when I think about it, I am relieved, this batch of grain is related to the fate of Jizhou, and Wang Lei must pay close attention to it.

Chen Gong arched his hand and said: "In Xia Chen Palace, I have seen Wang Zhoumu!" ”

Wang Lei was surprised in his heart, but he didn't expect to meet Chen Gong, and arched his hand: "Your Excellency is Chen Gongtai!" ”

Chen Gong said: "Does Wang Zhoumu also know Chen Gong? ”

Wang Lei nodded and said: "Mr. Chen is a celebrity in Yanzhou, Lei knows a little bit about it!" ”

Chen Gong's heart was slightly fluttering, even Wang Lei, a famous person, knew him, it seemed that his reputation was still good, Chen Gong was more vigilant in his heart, since Wang Lei knew him, his eyes must have fallen on Yanzhou, Cao Cao was concerned about the situation in Jizhou, why didn't Wang Lei always pay attention to the changes in Yanzhou?

As soon as the conversation changed, Chen Gong said: "Wang Zhou Mu, the lord asked me to send a total of 30,000 stone grain, this batch of grain is temporarily lent to Wang Zhou Mu to tide over the difficulties, and when the grain is harvested in the next year, Wang Zhou Mu has to return it to the lord!" ”

Wang Lei said: "This is nature, Brother Gongtai, please!" ”

"Please!" Chen Gong waved his hand and ordered the team escorting the grain to move on.

The group continued to hurry, out of Neihuang County, then entered Ye County, the army returned to the county seat of Ye County, grain storage, Wang Lei set up a banquet in the state pastoral mansion to entertain Chen Gong, and then began to prepare for the attack on Yuan Shao and Guan Hai.
